StackHealth / Optum Rx launches transparent PBM model, delinking drug prices from fees

Optum Rx unveils new transparent PBM model

fiercehealthcare - UnitedHealth Group's pharmacy benefit manager, Optum Rx, is making the shift to a more transparent model, the company announced Monday.

AI Summary: Optum Rx unveiled a new pharmacy benefit model that separates drug list prices from PBM fees and adopts clearer pass‑through pricing. Aimed at employers and payers fed up with opaque pharmacy economics, the proposal promises simpler contracts and fee clarity — an attempt to make PBMs boringly accountable and maybe slightly less profitable.
